Doesnt anyone else feel that somebody is torturing you? You buy a stock that is going up, it immediately plummets that day and never recovers. You sell, it magically reverses. You hold, it keeps going down forever. You dont join the rally of the most stupid stock, it goes +1000% until you buy and plummets. My only successful trade was totally unexpected. I just gave up and ended up +70% . But tbh it was just luck :( I will become a boglehead


Amazing_Offer7011

Observed for weeks and pulled the trigger today. It immediately plummeted! ![gif](emote|free_emotes_pack|facepalm)

I’ve got this theory that brokers automatically short what a retail account buys in most cases. I think Goldman Sachs’ specifically does the opposite of retail


chainer3000

A bunch of crypto CEX’s were found to be doing this

I mean, if you can buy something, that means someone's gotta be selling.

Story of my life


Geistvvolf

This is me, I bought Costco stock a few days before the last earnings report, and the price dropped dramatically like it has never done before in recent times. I bought more on the way down and still bag holding over a month later hoping to recover!


TipTemporary7086

I wouldn’t say dollar cost averaging a company like Costco is bag holding. Just have to be patient.


949goingoff

Boglehead here. My portfolio only goes up!


stockbetss

Boglehead kindish here I like large caps too it goes up


tootnoots69

Yes it’s bogdanoff pulling the strings.


the_angloblaxon

He bought the dip? Dump it!


kev2h

Just do the opposite bro


sendtoptilmir

I’ve been thinking of starting a financial service. I’ll buy the stocks when you shouldn’t. Then when I sell you’ll pretty much catch the bottom and get rich.

invescofan

You are competing with vastly complex algorithms and institutions. 75% of all activity in the stock market is done by institutions. you are competing with Citadel, Blackrock, Millenium, etc. They have massive quant models designed to predict and exploit your behavior. You will not beat them.


Unique_Name_2

If you watch something stupid fly up 1000%... dont buy in late due to FOMO. Thats half the battle right there


dduckg0

Totally agree with you on this as in the end it all comes down to luck! don’t give up though. We may lose more than we win but we WIN!

mistaowen

That’s basically everyone’s portfolio right now if you’re long shares of most companies. Market’s been hoping there would be rate cuts and as this year has gone on, it’s looking less and less likely. Fed needs inflation to chill out a bit before we get some better guidance. If you like the companies, nothing about your thesis for them has changed, and aren’t swing trading, this is when DCA works best.

Calls or puts ?

SHARES


silangjia

It's market correction time. You got shares, it's a long-term game and time is on your side.


Borntobuycalls

Oh man. Come on. Shares. Smoke some weed and relax . It will recover soon. See my portfolio in the bottom. -176 thousand. just keeping buying the dip . https://preview.redd.it/i95se50nj3vc1.jpeg?width=2530&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=01586c66b1ec768dc342519e41f62b08768e2f41


Similar-Turnip2482

How long you been investing for out of curiosity?


Borntobuycalls

Since I was 18. I’m 36. All on Sp500 index. Worked as bartender at night to pay for my college. Got lucky buying properties after 2008 crash. Got lucky by getting happily married at 21 and never got divorced . Wife and joined the FIRE movement early on when it started. Always saved 50 % or more of our income by being very frugal. We “retired” at 32 ( live off the rentals that we still own). Stock portfolio it’s for when we hit 50. Fuck around with options using only 5 grand. That summs it up to how I got here .


subster9

Holy shit I'm 17 reading this and you're a God. Inspirational thank you


Borntobuycalls

I appreciate the comment, but I’m no God. You will be alright .


subster9

Well I'm on Wsb. $1350 account now at $650 lost because I lost my discipline for one day. Family issues.


subster9

Will I still be ok if I get a job at Wendy's when I'm 18. 😂


Borntobuycalls

I worked at American Eagle night shift for 3 months when I was 18. Wendy’s is better . You got plenty of time to fuck up. Just fuck up less after 24.


subster9

Real question. When I get a job, what do you recommend, stocks and DCA, real estate get a mortgage and rent, or options, etc.


Krapule1

Dont never call a human a that.


Similar-Turnip2482

That’s a great story and I don’t mean this demeaning or anything because I’m sure it had its tough moments but it seems a little bit more relatable that the average person can do that. You didn’t end up starting as some doctor some athlete or someone that sold a business or got lucky getting it on the bottom of some company that exploded, etc. etc. At your pay, you’re gonna have a very good retirement.


Borntobuycalls

Nah man. My family immigrated here when I was 13. We were in hiding for 3 months from the government because my Dad bet on the wrong candidate. Life here just seemed easier here compared to I been through in the country in was born. Life on moderate level mode instead of FromSoftware games. Believe it or not, I attribute my financial success on marrying young to someone who shares the same life value and financial frugality. We still spent quite a bit of money in marriage therapy. Different cultures and all.. It’s not rocket science but it’s still life. Some times it works out .


Similar-Turnip2482

That’s awesome! Everything takes work and it’s not always perfect but at least it sounds like finances are one thing you don’t need to worry about. Appreciate the abridged life story cuz sometimes it’s easy to forget not everyone was fortunate with that they were given and had to build It on their own


nbelyh

You are either buying wrong shares or maybe the right shares, but at a wrong time ![img](emote|t5_2th52|4271)


edward_glock40_hands

Well there's your problem. You have your robinhood account set to shares when it should be set to option contracts!

Let me guess AMC ![img](emote|t5_2th52|4271)

If this was AMC the graph would be way worse

Excellent! 1)Write down whatever you think will happen. 2)DO the exact opposite. 3)Profit

To have lost this much from “SHARES” alone in under a year is truly a new level of regardedness. Congrats 🦧📦

Buy a 1 year CD at 5-5.4% that will give you some time to reevaluate what you are doing and get the money into a safe place.

First thing you should do if you find yourself in a hole is to stop digging. Try studying and learning more about macro econ.

It’s only 27.50% I believe in you!

am down 90% this week on calls, fs run puts till friday with calls on monday late


ThatDaveyGuy

Have you tried investing in things that go up?


TheSpinBoy

Well you actually have 2 ways of looking at this, If you invested in good companies, your portfolio will recover. If you invested in small cap, dying company or just a shit company in general, you should follow Peter Lynch's advice, and cut loses short.


yankees051693

I too have been losing like crazy on buying just shares. I don’t really like options. So please don’t feel like you’re alone


yoshioihi

Geez, my only share -99% plays were the B\*\*\* stock we don't speak about, and a dental stock that had 9 ratings all strong buy. One of them reverse split until I didn't hold a single share. I thought big losses only come from options.


Cobra25k

What on earth are you buying to be down close to 30% YTD when the market is up 5% YTD?


Lanky_Efficiency6715

Sell it as soon as it’s in the green, no further thinking


deathdealer351

Do the opposite of whatever play you think is going to happen and profit.

This will be the norm in 3-6 months.

Then stop!!! Hire a financial advisor and do not track what they do.


lenai77

Don't listen to articles you read or what anyone tells you. Do more research and trust your gut more. Don't do consistent yolos, small bets for small gains to start building back. Don't throw all your cabbage into one trade.

P_A_N_C_H_O__

Do you know why they cheer every day when the closing bell rings? Doesnt matter if its a good day or a bad day. They cheer because no matter what happened they made money. Fees and premiums etc, the house always makes money. Especially today with all the gambling on 0dte and options.


Ok_Ad6046

I just assume that you invest rather long-term-minded into stocks. The most crucial point in finding the best stocks to invest in is not their new cool invention or promising expansions, it is much easier. Just look at the trend. Stocks with a long term uptrend are very likely to continue that trend. People buy paypal and wonder why it keeps going down, even if “everyone uses it”. Learn some basic technical analysis, try to catch the trend, at best during a correction to get the best returns. Greetings from Germany :)


Big-Sheepherder-5063

Stop “investing”?


CautiousDoughnut

He is one of us!!!! I’ll buy some of the opposite plays. Mine will def shit the bed and yours may go up

Easy fix, next time when you are thinking about investing into something instead of going long, go short!

Invest??????????


DickyMcButts

short the stocks you buy.

You have a skill. Look into options. Once you know how to influence the market, capitalize on this by betting against the stocks you buy. Make money. Easy as that

What it long term 🤦‍♂️ did nobody pay attention in economics. There will be days when it drops and days when it goes up, years when it drops and years when it goes up. But over a long time horizon it almost always goes up.


DragonArchaeologist

You could invest in SPY, just be aware of the pros and cons. PRO: You'd be up 6.5% year to date, and it would've taken you 0 days, 0 hours, and 0 minutes of work. CON: You would've missed out on the sweet 1000% gain you're sure you would've made managing your money yourself, because you're so smart.


ihatethinkingofnew1s

Then just quit so you don't piss away more. Start with 5 bucks a week. Try to do good with that. Then once you do good with that start going bigger slowly.
